The packages you require are w32codecs (or win32codecs) and libdvdcss The following repos you can add to your sources.list deb http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/debian sid main deb-src http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/debian sid main That will at least get you libdvdcss and i think they provide w32codecs as well
